You're not beating anyone who's shooting 12/19 from deep, and it's not as though they're uncontested. We're putting hands in their faces, they're just that good.

We've taken more shots than them, but they're shooting lights out.

They only have 1 player shooting less than 50% (McCaw has taken and missed 1 shot).

Fuck this shit! I'm going ham on my Nerf hoop to vent my frustration!

I honestly can't picture you going ham... ever.

 

[illmatic99]

man what is cj doing

Nothing

 

[Darkwebs]

Damian Lillard scored or assisted on 8 of Portland's 10 field goals in the second quarter (6 FG, 2 assists).

Meyers Leonard has not missed a shot all game.

 

[illmatic99]

Let's run some pick and pop with Meyers in the 3rd. Get some scoring from him.

If Meyers sees another minute of PT this game, I'm gonna get on the fire Terry bandwagon

 

[EGame]

Meyers Leonard has not missed a shot all game.

now these are the stats that are relevant. I wish slypokerdog would stop spamming the forums with useless stats

[KingSpeed]

Cavs came back from 25 down at half in game 3. We gotta do it now. Come on Dame. Go LeBron on these guys.

 

[BonesJones]

This is the best game thread in S2 history. So many gems!!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Meyers Leonard has not missed a shot all game.

Meyers played 5 mins and is -17. That has to be a record.

 

[KingSpeed]

What's a sticker??

 

[Cippy91]

Damn. Lame

 

[KingSpeed]

Meyers played 5 mins and is -17. That has to be a record.

Nolan Smith went -18 in like 2 minutes once

 

[Mediocre Man]

You do realize he wasn't head coach and gets owned by Carlisle every time we play .... right?

You realize Hammon isn't a head coach either...right?

 

[H.C.]

At least Lillard & Turner showed up as starters. yay team.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Damn. Lame

Funny shit

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Nolan Smith went -18 in like 2 minutes once

I have no idea who that is.

I also have no idea who that Meyers guy is.

I don't even think the Blazers are playing tonight.

 

[ripcityboy]

The sour taste of this season will help. If Dame has anything to do with it.

I'm sure Dame will have one of those closed meetings with Olshey like Isaiah Thomas used to have with Jack McClusky. Except Dame isn't a total backstabbing twat like Isaiah was.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Ok. 24 minutes of delusional cheering left, I do believe I have it in me. Comeback time!

 

[EGame]

Meyers played 5 mins and is -17. That has to be a record.

Too bad we didnt let him play against mcgee. It would have soared even higher in the record books.

That was Dame's 9th career technical, his first ever in the playoffs.

 

[Chris Craig]

I want to punch Draymond Green in the face. But, I'm only 5'4 so I probably wouldn't be able to reach his face, and even if I did, I'm only 5'4 so it wouldn't turn out so good for me...but hey I would have punched Draymond Green in the face!

 

[EGame]

Ok. 24 minutes of delusional cheering left, I do believe I have it in me. Comeback time!

is kingspeed hacking accouts now?

 

[MickZagger]

Yeah, Curry needs to get his ass beat.

A Spurs beat down of them in the Conference finals would suffice. Or even the Jazz next round. I think the Jazz might give them fits.

 

[BlazerBeav]

Nolan Smith went -18 in like 2 minutes once

Worst 2 minutes of basketball ever. And Nate took that long to pull him.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Dame looks PISSED OFF

 

[LuckyShot]

Dame looks PISSED OFF

He can't win 1 on 5 though.

 

[KingSpeed]

Coach Terry Stotts has been masterful this season managing this roster. But a simple substitution Saturday doomed this game and further exposed what has been a season-long issue. With 5:09 left in the first quarter, Stotts made his first move - inserting point guard Nolan Smith for Lillard and center Joel Freeland for Hickson. Smith and Freeland lasted two minutes and 37 seconds. In that stretch - and this is no exaggeration - the Bucks outscored Portland 17-0.

Smith, in particular, was brutal. Bucks guards Brandon Jennings and Monta Ellis administered the equivalent of a public wedgie on Smith, twice swiping his pass, and once stripping him of his dribble. All three turnovers resulted in fast break layins.

 

[H.C.]

Will Harkless see the floor again tonight?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Ok, so GS will come out and most likely trap Dame because that's there D for next series

Need to swing early

 

[EGame]

damn cj doesnt even wanna try a layup now.
